Fabian Vogt discovered that the KDE session management server insufficiently restricted ICE connections from localhost, which could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code as another user on next boot.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in version 4:5.20.5-6+deb11u1.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in version 4:5.27.5-2+deb12u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your plasma-workspace packages.
